From the workshop floor
"I started Student Handicrafts in 1999 with one workshop and a handful of bag designs. Every product we ship today is still made by a named craftsperson — that hasn't changed in 27 years. When you order from us, you're ordering directly from the hands that made it."

Buyer feedback
"Student Handicrafts is the rare supplier that answers emails within a business day, ships on the quoted week, and catches problems before we do. Eight years of orders, zero surprises."Wholesale buyer · New York, USA
Buyer questions, answered
Wholesale questions we get most.
Quick answers on minimums, lead times, customisation, samples, and shipping. Need detail? Reach out — we reply within one business day.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
We do not enforce a fixed MOQ for most products — you can order as few units as you need. That said, we recommend a minimum of 30 pieces per SKU to keep freight costs proportionate to product value; smaller quantities risk shipping costs exceeding the goods’s worth.
For custom or private-label items, MOQ typically starts at 100–250 pieces depending on the product category and customization depth.
Mixed loads are welcome — different SKUs can ship together in the same consignment.
What is your typical response time to an inquiry?
We aim to reply within one business day (Nepal time, UTC+5:45). Most quotes go out within 4–6 working hours. Complex custom quotes — private-label, bespoke design, large mixed loads — may take 2–3 business days while we confirm material availability and artisan capacity.
Do you offer private-label and custom branding?
Yes. Services include:
Woven tags — your brand label sewn into each piece (MOQ 250 pcs)
Printed hangtags — card stock or recycled paper with your logo and care info
Custom packaging — cotton pouches, branded boxes, tissue wrap
Embroidery / screen print on bags and clothing
No setup fee on woven tags for orders of 500+.
Can I order a sample before placing a bulk order?
Yes. We offer a sample program — order 1 piece per SKU at retail price plus courier. Sample cost is credited against any bulk order of that SKU placed within 60 days.
For custom or private-label products, sample development takes 10–14 days. Sample fee is quoted per design.
What shipping methods do you offer?
We ship via four modes:
Express courier (FedEx, DHL, UPS, TNT, Aramex) — 3–7 business days, best for samples and small orders
Air freight — 5–9 business days, economical from 45 kg+
EMS / registered post — 1–4 weeks, under 20 kg
Sea / land cargo — 70–90 days via Indian seaports, best for full containers
